China Documentary Summary In the documentary video: engineering an empire they explored Chinas: history, empires and engineering. When they were talking about Chinas engineering they talked about how they had had more advanced structures like li changs irrigation system. He also made a way to clear moutons without explosions by heating and cooling the rock and making it crumble. Then they talked about the Great Wall of China and the many hardships that the constructing of it happened. After that they talked about the tomb of shi huangdi and how it was the greatest tomb china ever knew and the tomb of terracotta warriors. Yang di was the first to strengthen his army within Chinas borders. He also constructed the major canal which helps traders and merchants etc to get to China. The last emperor talked about Zheng He controlled the Ming dynasty. As a boy Zheng He was taken from his family and his village. I thought the video taught me a lot of things I needed to know. I am curious about how china got so large like it is today. And I would also like to know more about the Great Wall of China.
